With the weak stars Marcus Rashford (24) and Jadon Sancho (22), two prominent players from Manchester United could miss the leap into the English national squad for the Winter World Cup in Qatar.

Two stars are threatened with being eliminated from the World Cup: The English national team could compete at the World Cup in Qatar without Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho, as “Sky” reports. According to this, national coach Gareth Southgate said that “there is still a lot to do to return to the squad.”

Short, compact, clear

Squad full of alternatives: In addition to their own mixed performances in the jersey of Manchester United, the strong competition in the squad of the “Three Lions” is a problem for the two offensive players. Jack Grealish, Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden shouldn’t be able to avoid it, too Bukayo Saka and Mason Mount have been more convincing lately.

Conditions for the return of the national team: Nevertheless, Southgate knows about the qualities of Rashford and Sancho and does not want to close the door completely: “They have to start playing better at the club. Neither of them really played at the end of the season.” In this case, new nominations cannot be ruled out.
